* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: When Gumball tells Darwin that he's the father of the slimy microwave creature, Darwin tries to leave, even using the old "[[GoingToTheStore I'm going out for cigarettes]]" (changed to "...buy some stuff... at the shop?") excuse associated with deadbeat fathers about to abandon their families. He's even wearing a fedora and carrying a suitcase!

* ILoveNuclearPower: Gumball claims Kenneth was created by "the atomic power of the microwave", though microwaves actually have nothing to do with nuclear radiation.
* ItCameFromTheFridge: The monster, Kenneth, originated when a bunch of gross stuff Gumball put in a jar was put in the microwave.



* UglyCute: In-universe, Gumball and Darwin [[AdmiringTheAbomination certainly think so about Kenneth, their "son"]], and Anais reluctantly describe it using these exact words. At least before he starts growing to tremendous proportions after ''eating people alive.''

* FeedItABomb: Rather than a bomb, Kenneth is defeated by feeding him a hose then building up a tremendous amount of water pressure, but the effect is very similar (but less harmless to those inside). This ends up reducing Kenneth to the same size as when he was born.
* HereWeGoAgain: Kenneth spits everything up and is reduced to his original size and Gumball insists he can keep him under control. Then it cuts to an even ''bigger'' Kenneth knocking helicopters out of the sky.
* ILoveNuclearPower: Gumball claims Kenneth was created by "the atomic power of the microwave", though microwaves actually have nothing to nuclear radiation.
